Lyrics
One small town boy whose dreams were higher
One small town boy with ambitious dreams
Thought up a plan
Devised a plan
To be a city man
To transition into city life
Out in the world
Exploring the world
Bright burned the fire
Passionately pursuing his goals
Through every door
Encountering various opportunities
He was so sure
Filled with confidence
Than he ran into a problem
Facing a challenge
He heard the voice inside him say
Hearing an internal questioning voice
"Do you believe that what you have is what you need"
Questioning the satisfaction of current possessions
You can't blame Louis
Acknowledging Louis without blame
Oh, Louis
Expressing empathy towards Louis
He found a girl
Louis finding a romantic partner
His heart's desire
The girl becoming his heart's desire
She was the first
She was the first love
She quenched the thirst
Quenching his emotional thirst
His social whirl
Social life not fulfilling
Did not inspire
The divine love losing its shine
Her live divine
Soon lost its shine
Her live divine soon fading
Now he's counting every hour
Louis counting time, questioning the partner's actions
Wondering where she spent the night
Concerned about her nightly whereabouts
She doesn't slow, it seems he'll never know
Uncertainty about her actions
You can't blame Louis
Reiterating empathy towards Louis
Oh, Louis
Expressing understanding for Louis
You can't blame Louis
Repeating acknowledgment of Louis
Oh, Louis
Continuing empathy for Louis
Take a day and trace a thought to where it all began
Suggesting a reflection on the journey's beginning
Wondering how you felt at every turn
Considering emotions at each turn
Even thought reality was not part of the plan
Recognizing reality deviating from the plan
By reaching out you lit the spark forever
Emphasizing a lasting impact of reaching out
Louis thought he'd find the answer
Louis searching for answers in a soulless world
In a world that has no soul
Moving on to discover new experiences
He moved on, to learn another song
Learning and growing through challenges
You can't blame Louis
Reiterating empathy for Louis
Oh, Louis
Continuing understanding for Louis
